neueHCT and iMotion Sign MoU on Deepening Strategic Cooperation, Jointly Expanding into Overseas Intelligent Driving Market

Recently, neueHCT and iMotion officially signed an Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on deepening strategic cooperation. Building upon their existing partnership, the two companies will further extend and deepen their cooperation to develop competitive integrated driving assistance products based on the Horizon Journey® 6B chip, while jointly expanding into overseas markets. This milestone marks the official transition of their collaboration from domestic mass-production deployment to overseas expansion, working together to accelerate the worldwide deployment of advanced intelligent driving solutions.

01 Strengthening the Partnership and Deepening Synergy for Global Expansion

Prior to this, neueHCT and iMotion have carried out multiple rounds of technical collaboration across intelligent driving algorithms, middleware, base software, and hardware based on Horizon Journey® 6 chips. Their co-developed intelligent driving solutions based on the J6M and J6B chips are already in mass production, with subsequent projects entering an intensive mass-production delivery phase and continuing to win new programs. The teams have also accumulated mature collaboration experience in product development and mass-production delivery, laying a solid foundation for stable commercialization.

The signing of this MoU on deepening strategic cooperation marks a further upgrade in the strategic alliance between neueHCT and iMotion. The two companies will establish a long-term, stable strategic collaboration framework, extending their cooperation from the domestic market to overseas markets and jointly expanding the global business of jointly developed integrated driver-assistance products based on the Horizon J6B. By leveraging their respective strengths, complementing each other’s product capabilities, and aligning their global strategies, the two companies will deliver integrated intelligent assisted driving solutions that have been validated in the domestic market and offer high performance and strong competitiveness to overseas OEMs and customers.

02 Dual Empowerment & Synergistic Strengths: Building New Competitive Advantages for Global Intelligent Driving Expansion

Currently, the intelligent driving industry is at a critical turning point, shifting from premium optional configurations to mass-market adoption. Bringing advanced intelligent driving solutions to mainstream vehicle models has become a key pathway toward the democratization of intelligent driving. Against this backdrop, neueHCT and iMotion stand out as close strategic partners advancing this shared vision.

Both neueHCT and iMotion have established global service systems covering overseas markets, equipped with localized development, regulatory compliance, and engineering deployment capabilities. They can precisely and rapidly adapt to varying intelligent driving admission standards and market demands across different countries and regions, providing continuous technical iterations and localization services for global expansion, enabling their solutions to enter global markets in a more mature and reliable form.

At the signing ceremony, Song Yang, Founder and CEO of iMotion, stated:

"From early-stage technology refinement to large-scale mass production and vehicle integration, iMotion and neueHCT have consistently been trusted partners. Our continued success in the domestic market validates the effectiveness of our collaboration model and the competitiveness of our solutions. Today, as we set our sights on broader overseas markets, we are taking our partnership even further. Moving forward, we will continue to work side by side, delivering superior intelligent driving experiences for OEMs and consumers, and ensuring that technological innovation truly benefits everyday mobility."

Li Biao, CEO of neueHCT, stated:

"The intelligent driving industry has reached a critical stage of mass-production deployment and global competition, where strategic synergy becomes imperative for market expansion. neueHCT and iMotion share a solid foundation of cooperation, with our joint vehicle models having already received strong market feedback. Moving forward, we will continue to work together, maximizing our respective strengths. Anchored by our mature product technologies, we will co-create globally competitive intelligent driving solutions and expand our footprint across international markets."

This enhanced strategic memorandum of understanding (MoU) marks a new phase in the partnership between iMotion and neueHCT. Moving forward, the two companies will leverage their complementary strengths to co-develop advanced assisted driving solutions and accelerate their global expansion. Driven by technological innovation, they remain committed to advancing the mass production of intelligent driving products and contributing the momentum of China’s intelligent driving industry to the global transformation toward intelligent mobility.
